Tampa Resident - Infopass Info.

[Shari 6]

Though we are now at the Lifting Conditions stage, I wanted to post question this on this fourm too as some of you might have had to make an Infopass appointment at Tampa and I need your input. My husband has his biometrics appointment for his I-751 near Brandon at noon on May 1st. We made his Infopass appointment for 9:00 a.m. in Tampa (near the airport) for his I-751 stamp as he did not receive an NOA1 and his GC expires on 05/12/08. Has anyone has an Infopass appointment in Tampa and how long did it take? I want to make sure we have time to get these both done the same day so my husband doesn't have to take off work a second day. We could not make the Infopass any earlier because we have to drop my daughter off at school at 7:30 (and no she can't ride with anyone because we are new here and she doesn't know anyone yet) and I thought it would be pushing it to get from Brandon (where we live) to the Infopass office (I-4 through Tampa) any earlier than 9:00 a.m., though they did have an 8:30 appointment. Of course we have to make it from Infopass in Tampa back to biometrics in Brandon by noon. The latest Infopass in the afternoon was 3:00, but again, we have to pick up my daughter from school at 3:00. Thanks!

When we went last (2006) they were right on time - however we took one of the earliest appointments and it was just a status inquiry, so it went very quickly. All you can do it try I suppose - no one can really say if your times are too tight or not. My thought is if you wind up a bit late for the bio appt - they might not make any issue of it.

Shari, don't forget to bring a copy of this memo in case they try to make it difficult to get an I-551 stamp.
